maybe he should have invited more people to the party. I would have come. :(
Poor Adrian. My 37th birthday sucked, too, but at least the strippers still had teeth.
That's the flipside of local politics in DC: an elected official can go from being the quisatz haderach to a Sith lord in a matter of days. DC wouldn't have this problem if the Council would only show some leadership and continue the low-income spice melange subsidies and home test kits for midichlorians; subsidies, I might add, that reached their highest levels under the Barry Administration. But I suppose the Council cut these programs for our own good. I can't imagine the problems associated with the Trade Federation meddling in local affairs, let alone having to deal with Third Stage Guild Navigators. You thought getting your car registered in DC is a hassle; try having one of those clowns fold space around your Mini. Then you'll really wish you went to the Georgetown DMV office.
Ramsey was always safe in his home with his gun as are all the other police officers ... it is just the rest of us that are expected to tough it out with kitchen knives and baseball bats.
My apologies for having to hit that van with my enchanted boner, but the driver had my marbles and wouldn't give them back.
That van was a-rockin'.
That's "Kwisatz Haderach", monkeyrotica. Let's keep our messianic Dune terminology correct here ;)
I defer to the floating fat man.
The Harkonnens were just misunderstood, really. Who doesn't have a soft spot for red-haired, vaguely Russo-aristocratic bullies?
Can we keep our Dune and Star Wars references to separate comments, please, before someone gets hurt.
But it is good to know that Marion Barry understood the importance of Jedi self-diagnosis with those home test kits.
I was suprised by the statistic that 1-in-20 DC residents have the Jedi infection and don't even know it! Please, if you value your life and the lives of your loved ones, please have yourself tested. Remember: when you quote Star Wars you're quoting everyone else who's ever quoted Star Wars.
Did you see the second half of the Beacon House football team?
Looks like Gibbs needs to take a lesson from this coach on how to finish out a game.
